How do you feel about family kissing your baby?

Question

Answer

Only on the head or cheek. Not on the lips

Answer

I’m okay with close family kissing my kids, like my mother-in-law or my Grandma. I wouldn’t let a distant relative kiss them though.

Answer

Absolutely not. My grandma got mad at me because I made it very clear the only way anyone could kiss her is if she has socks on her feet. And I honestly dont care because it's my baby and if they cant respect my kids saftey then they can just watch from a distance. But my grandma got over it, she said I was reading weird stuff and that we came out fine. Guess she looked it up and noticed new world issues but I love her and glad she came around bc at one point she was refusing to see her if she couldnt kiss her🤷🏽‍♀️

Answer

No way! I've had doctors recommend only the parent(s) kiss the child. Anyone else is dangerous, their immune system can't handle it.

Answer

Not the lips

Answer

For cold sores can a baby get one from someone kissing anywhere on their face? Or just on lips or close

Answer

As petty as this will sound it depends on who it is... we have some family that is really clean we have some that is dirty... by dirty I mean they smell, just appear unshowered dirty clothes... I really don’t even like them holding baby... 
my bfs mom is an alcoholic she isn’t allowed to even hold our son... (HIS choice- I don’t object to it)

Answer

Head, yes. Nowhere else

Answer

Not on the lips. In our family only mommy and daddy can kiss baby on the lips. My mom didn't like that rule but that was our boundary and I felt strongly about it.

Answer

Nope. It is 100% not worth the risk.
